Maurice Jones Drew… 5’7"
My point was that recruiting rankings do not always reflect how good a team will be. I grant that teams like Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, etc. will always have high recruiting rankings.

No one would ever mistake UH Run & Shoot RB Chuck Weatherspoon with Derrick Henry or Eric Dickerson. Spoon was 5’9”, 229 lbs., but boy, could he hit the hole and chew up yardage.
It was like having a bowling ball with a red UH helmet in the backfield.

Agree some teams squader their talent. I feel good that our staff will do with with good/great recruits just like bball does. I would like to see us move up the ladder.

This is what I’m waiting on as well. I have a good feeling about Lakeyleon, but Groce seems like a bigger challenge.

They were good UH supporters but I did not attend there.
The longer it goes for Grice the better UH has a shot. Especially if he doesn’t commit soon!!!

I was about to type this exact thing but saw that you already said it. aTm and UT being good benefits us cuz their staffs have decided to recruit nationally instead of plucking half of the top-tier, in-state talent.

By the way, Mr. Weatherspoon was recruited out of…La Habra H.S., California.
